A/N: Hey guys! 3k views is literally crazy, thank you so much! What are you thinking of the story so far, and do you have any ideas for it? I love hearing from y'all!

Moon POV:

"Why did you call a 'meeting' here Moon? It's the start of term, come on!" Peril complained, flicking her tail irritably and setting fire to a few bushes.

"There's nothing. . . wrong, right?!" Turtle asked, looking slightly scared.

"Oh, there  IS something wrong, Turtle! Something terrible, truly awful!" I replied.

"Something really terrifying! Slinking in the shadows, waiting to pounce and eat you. . ." Peril hissed into Turtles ear making him jump and nearly land in Peril's burnt bushes.

"Err. . . No," I said, trying not to laugh at how scared Turtle looked. 

"What is it then? You know I love gossip!" Kinkajou piped in, grinning.

"Is it Peacemaker? Did something happen?!" Turtle fretted.

"Is Scarlet back? Is Ruby okay?!" Peril added.

"Is there some virus in the rainforest that's going to kill all of the sloths?!?!" Kinkajou looked pale at the thought.

I laughed. "No, no, nothing like that. Qibli and Winter aren't talking."

Kinkajou gasped dramatically, Turtle raised an eyebrow and Peril looked unimpressed. "Are you kidding me right now?" She muttered, "right, I'm going, I was hoping someone had at least died or something."

"Wait! Stay here! This is an EXTREMELY important matter. Why aren't they talking Moon?! What happened?! Whatever shall we do?!" Kinkajou shouted theatrically, stopping Peril in her tracks.

"Alright, fine," Peril muttered, sitting down again.

"Qibli said that they argued," I explained.

"That's it?" Turtle asked.

"Basically, yeah," I replied, "so, what do we do?"

"We could burn one of them so that the other is like 'oh noOo mY bOyFrIeNd' they might end up dying, but we could at least give them a tragic love story,' Peril suggested, now looking invested in what we were discussing. "I could do the burning?" She offered seeing the horror on our faces.

"What?! NO!!!" Kinkajou shouted, "maybe instead we could. . . Give them both sloths and then they could both be like 'awwww so cute' and then they would have something to talk about?"

"Or we could burn the sloths and then they would be sad, and then they would REALLY have something to talk about?" Peril added in.

"Or perhaps we could just set them on a date?" Turtle muttered under his breath.

"That's a GREAT idea!" I said.

"REALLY?!" Peril and Kinkajou both asked incredulously at the same time.

"What? No, no, no! Turtle's idea."

Peril and Kinkajou both looked disappointed whilst Turtle blinked. "What idea?"

"We set them on a DATE!" I said excitedly 

"AWESOME!" Kinkajou squealed, stars in her eyes.

"Blegh. Love," Peril looked disgusted.

"Oh right," Turtle said, "sounds like the stuff in romance novels."

"Hey, you came up with the idea!" I retorted, "but. . . How are we going to do this?"

"I have some ideas," Kinkajou grinned.

Mkay, what do you think? They make such a great team don't they? This was pretty fun to write tbh. Have a nice day, night, whatever.
